To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, RICHARD SHARP, of Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Composition Filling" for Painters; and I do hereby declare that the follow-i use by the addition of a mixture of two parts of coach-japan with one part of rubbing-varnish. If the varnish mixture is too thick add some turpentine.

The wood is first filled with from three to five coats of keg lead, and then coated with this surface-protector, which causes the work to take a fine polish.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A roughstuff compound to follow paint,

formed of pumice-stone, applied in GOIIHGOBIGD with white lead, japan, and varnish, as described.
